UI Freeze in place, Alpha 6 freeze ahead

Hello Ubuntu developers,

As of today, we are officially under the User Interface Freeze for Intrepid:

   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserInterfaceFreeze

In order to help ensure our documentation is accurate for the release,
please notify the documentation team of any further changes to artwork, text
strings, or UI designs that will be made between now and the release, and
please make such changes only where necessary.

Our sixth and final alpha testing milestone for Intrepid, Intrepid Alpha 6,
is scheduled for next Thursday, September 18.  Intrepid Alpha 6 will again
use a "soft freeze" for main[1].  This means that developers are asked to
refrain from uploading packages between Tuesday and Thursday which don't
bring us closer to releasing the alpha, so that these days can be used for
settling the archive and fixing any remaining showstoppers.

The list of bugs targeted for alpha-6 can be found at:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+bugs?field.milestone%3Alist=1324

Per a previous announcement on this list[2] and the policy at
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RCBugTargetting>, this list is used for tracking
bugs that are blockers for the alpha 6 milestone.  If you know of other bugs
that should be considered blockers, please nominate them for release and set
the milestone target for those bugs.  If you have questions about whether a
bug should be considered a blocker, please contact a member of the release
team[3].
